Thank You to All Attendees
of the
2009 Disability Access Conference!
The Disability & Communication Access Board would like to thank all those who attended this year's 2009 Disability Access Conference held on September 23, 2009 at the Ala Moana Hotel.
This year's conference saw over 200 people attending longer sessions on the new ADA/ABA Accessibility Guidelines, Educational Facilities, Guidelines for Hearing and Visual Challenges, Residential Housing Accessibility Guidelines, Accessible Routes and Vertical Access.
We at DCAB would also like to thank our guest speakers who gave their time to present at this year's Conference.

Ms. Peggy Greenwell, Accessibility Specialist, U.S. Access Board, Washington D.C.
